Buried Story
Why is the story being buried about the other three wounded insurgents in the mosque who were shot and killed as well? There was a lot of heated discussion about the actions of the marine in Fallujah and back and forth of whether the shooting was justified or not. There were good arguments on both sides. But I think the fact that the other wounded men were killed along with the individual who was "faking that he's dead", pretty much takes the steam out of any possible belief that this was justified.

2. Yep
But outside of a small article in the newspaper, I don't think anyone has mentioned it. Kind of surprising considering all the play the original story got.

3. But it's okay to execute the wounded as long....
as you yell "They're coming right at me!!" as you shoot them.

It's the South Park doctrine doncha know.

AmeriKKKa to world: Please forget about that human rights crap and Geneva Conventions. Kill Americans at every opportunity without mercy. these are the new standards.

<sarcasm off>

blowback on this one will last many many years.
